NORFOLK, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Homes.com,
leading online real estate listing site and lifestyle resource, has
partnered with cable network, TLC, to help a San Diego family find the
home of their dreams. The Snyder family used the Homes.com website and
mobile app as they scoured the city’s neighborhoods for a home to call
their own. Taking advantage of tools and resources on the site, the
Snyders felt better prepared for the investment of homeownership. Their
entire journey was captured on the hit TLC show, My First Home.

Ready for the responsibilities of owning a home, the Snyders contacted
area Realtor® Erica Miller to help them throughout the search/purchase
process. Working parents of three children, Brandy and Shane were ready
to leave “on base” housing in pursuit of a larger home in a neighborhood
with access to great schools. Torn on their ideal home, the Snyders were
faced with the difficult decision to move further away and get more
‘bang for their buck,’ or stay close to the beach. Using resources
on Homes.com was key, as was partnering with the perfect real estate
agent to ensure the Snyders got the most out of their home search.

“Buying your first home is an exciting time, but it can be confusing and
overwhelming without the right resources and support,” said Brock
MacLean, executive vice president of ForRent.com and Homes.com. “The
tools and resources available on Homes.com, such as the commute
calculator which helped the Snyders choose the right schools for their
children, and the assistance of a trusted real estate professional, can
help ease the stress of the decision-making process, arming homebuyers
with the knowledge needed to make the best choice.”

“TLC and Homes.com share a great partnership and nothing makes us
prouder than being able to utilize one of our shows to provide
opportunities such as this to help the Snyders find a home,” said Josh
Trager, vice president, advertising sales, TLC.

Thanks to Homes.com, Erica Miller and TLC, Brandy and Shane Snyder were
able to find their ideal San Diego home. Their entire journey can be
viewed on Saturday, May 10 at 12:30 p.m. ET/9:30 a.m. PT on TLC’s My
First Home.
